"Your Excellency Li Xuan, are you interested in joining the Hong Kong Economic Development Policy Consultation Committee and choose some plans for the next step of Hong Kong's economic development?" MacLehose made a short impromptu speech and suddenly suggested to Li Xuan next to him. road.

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't know the function of this consultation meeting, but he still said with a smile: "If Sir does not think that I am young and not experienced enough, I am very honored to be able to contribute to the development of this city!"

"Aspiration is not young!" MacLehose, who has lived in Hong Kong for ten years, is already a China expert. If he only listened to his speech without looking at his skin color, he would not think he was a ghost at all.

As the Governor, MacLehose had a very tight schedule. He only stopped in the banquet hall and left. Li Xuan and Han Peng, the executive president of Dongfang Electronics, personally sent him downstairs. It was not until the car drove away from the hotel door that several people turned around and returned to the hotel.

"What kind of organization is this Hong Kong Economic Development Policy Advisory Council?" Li Xuan asked Han Peng next to him.

"This consultation meeting is an economic strategy think tank established by the Governor's Office in 1977. At the beginning of the year, all members of the consultation committee submitted a joint letter to the Hong Kong Governor's Office, suggesting that China and the UK should convene this year. Negotiating the future of Hong Kong, otherwise it will be detrimental to the long-term development of Hong Kong!" Han Peng said with a smile, "This proposal also caused a lot of public opinion in Hong Kong at the time, but unfortunately it was rejected by MacLehose!"

Li Xuan nodded, expressing that he had some impressions: "Who are there in the consultation meeting?"

"Everyone who can squeeze in is the big bosses from all sides! The chairman of the consultation meeting is the Financial Secretary Sir Xia Dingji, other members include HSBC Bank senior class Shen Bi, Jardine Matheson senior class Niu Bijian, etc. The Chinese include Zhong Shiyuan, An Zijie, Li Guowei and others! So saying that the Governor of Hong Kong has given you a letter of appointment shows that he values ​​you very much!" Han Peng smiled very happily, and Dongfang Electronics finally began to enter the sight of the caring people.

Needless to say, HSBC and Jardine, the two largest British-owned consortiums in Hong Kong, Zhong Shiyuan is considered to be the second most important Chinese in Hong Kong politics after Deng Lianru. An Zijie, a textile giant, was later one of the national leaders.

This writing all explains the threshold and weight of this policy consultation meeting. Li Xuan nodded slightly. It seems that the Hong Kong government has made a detailed investigation on Dongfang Electronics. Although Dongfang Electronics has carried out a series of public relations campaigns in a planned way this year, it is still a new company among Hong Kong citizens.

This is also a bit far from the ordinary citizens, like the arcade machines, handheld consoles, and personal computers, which are the main products of Dongfang Electronics. Moreover, the local market in Hong Kong is too small. Dongfang Electronics has always focused its efforts on developing overseas markets such as North America, Japan and Europe.

However, what does not match the initial appearance of its reputation is that the actual revenue capacity of Dongfang Electronics can beat most of the Hong Kong companies by a large margin. From the arcade business alone, Dongfang Electronics' monthly sales revenue exceeds 10 million US dollars, which is on the premise that most of the profits are trapped in the accounts of offshore companies.

After a lot of publicity investment and word-of-mouth fermentation, GameBoy's sales began to climb, and last month's shipments reached an incredible 2 million units. Although it began to fall back this month, it can also remain above 1.5 million units.

Coupled with the revenue from game cartridges, the monthly sales of Dongfang Electronics' handheld business has already exceeded 20 million US dollars. Although the actual profit margin of handhelds is far from that of arcades due to the low price strategy, sales have replaced arcades and become the company's largest cash flow income.

If Aikang Computer is not separated out independently, after ABC computer sales start to explode, the overall revenue of Dongfang Electronics Co., Ltd. will be a very stable thing to enter the Fortune 500 list next year. To know that "Fortune" magazine released this year's list of the top 500 companies in the United States, the sales of the companies at the bottom of the list last year were only 430 million US dollars.

Han Peng returned to the banquet hall first, while Li Xuan stayed in the hall waiting for his girlfriend to go to the bathroom. It’s not that I don’t know, but I’m startled, Dongfang Electronics already has the qualifications to compete with other consortiums in Hong Kong. No wonder Dongfang Electronics just issued an invitation, and the Governor MacLehose was willing to come to the platform in person. Li Xuan felt that his former **** mentality had to be changed, and he was already one of the top giants in Hong Kong.

"This Governor of Hong Kong speaks Cantonese so fluently!" Zhong Chuhong said with a smile, holding her boyfriend's arm.

"It's called doing as the locals do. Haven't you heard him speak on TV before?" Li Xuan said with a smile.

"I used to watch TV and thought it was too far away, but today I'm right in front of you. It feels different, so close to the people!" Zhong Chuhong thought for a while and said.

"You little **** are easy to be deceived. Just speaking a few words of Cantonese makes you feel close to the people!" Li Xuan shook his head with a smile. These are just shows. They are colonists and don't know what colonization is.

More than ten years later, the last Governor of Hong Kong, Chris Patten, was more approachable than MacLehose, and he was more willing to communicate with ordinary Hong Kong citizens. But he was obviously a hawk who was sent by the British government to smash the jar before he left. As a result, many Hong Kong people still knelt and licked him. I really don't know if these people's heads were caught in the door.

"How about it, will such a party feel boring?" Li Xuan asked again with a smile.

"It's not boring, but it just feels like everyone's laughs are so formulaic!" Zhong Chuhong was still a little uncomfortable with the reception.

"Is it because everyone wears masks and smiles hypocritically?" Li Xuan glanced at his girlfriend and said with a smile, "The so-called upper class people like this set, it's just the beginning, and there will be more and more occasions like this in the future. The more. You have to get used to it slowly. When you learn to talk to people and talk to ghosts, you are truly qualified!"

"How can you say it is so unbearable!" Zhong Chuhong laughed and scolded.

The two walked into the elevator talking and laughing, not knowing that in the hotel lobby just now, a man in a suit who seemed to be waiting for someone, secretly and violently pressed the shutter of the camera hidden in his clothes.

Lin Guitai stood beside his son Lin Yuhao and saw Li Xuan walking over with brandy to greet them. This was his second meeting with Li Xuan, but it made him feel countless emotions.

Last time, Lin Guitai just regarded Li Xuan as a junior whom his son made friends with in college. Although he knew that he was running a company by himself, Lin Guitai didn't really take it to heart. Until Li Xuan threw out millions of cheques in one breath, and brought his son to join the group to invest in real estate in the new special zone of the mainland on the other side of the Jiehe River. He just started to be a little more curious about this young and rich young man.

But in less than a year, he has gone from initial curiosity, to admiration, to shock, and now he has become speechless. With the help of a few helpers he sent, his son Lin Yuhao has grown very fast for more than half a year, and he already has the momentum and skills of a superior.

But as the saying goes, people are more dead than people, and goods are thrown away! Compared with Li Xuan, who was standing in front of him, Lin Guitai not only felt that his son was not comparable, but even he, an old bone who was turned into a crocodile in Hong Kong by the newspaper, felt a little ashamed.

It took him half his life to work hard for this foundation, and it only took him a year to catch up with him. Not long ago, Lin Guitai had dinner with Sir Shen Bi, the senior class of HSBC. When talking about the newly emerging Dongfang Electronics, Shen Bi said with a smile, if Li Xuan is willing to sell the company, even if he spends 5 billion Hong Kong dollars on the acquisition, it will not make a steady profit. Lost!

Not long ago, the ship king Bao Yugang took the food from the tiger's mouth and took the Wharf from Jardine Matheson. He only spent 2.1 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the market value of the entire Wharf was only 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

"Li Sheng, the future generations are terrifying!" Lin Guitai adjusted his mood and said with a smile.

"Uncle Lin, you're embarrassed to call me that! I and Ah Hao are brothers, you can just call me Ah Xuan!" Li Xuan hurriedly waved his hand and said.

"You deserve it! Since you are willing to call me this old bone Uncle Lin, then I will take advantage of this and call you Xiao Lisheng!" Lin Guitai said with satisfaction.

Actually, the invitation card for today's reception~www.readwn.com~ Li Xuan was only sent to Lin Yuhao, but Lin Guitai came uninvited. The status of Dongfang Electronics in the eyes of others is different, and the name of the boss Li Xuan is also different in the eyes of others.

"It's not good for you to be busy with the company's affairs all day long. I haven't seen you make many friends! I will take you to meet a few friends in a few days. It's always good to know some people!" Lin Guitai taught earnestly.

Li Xuan hurriedly responded, not because he didn't want to enter a higher-level circle, but because Dongfang Electronics was rising too fast, and he didn't have time to enter that circle at all. Since Lin Guitai, a rich man in Hong Kong, is willing to personally guide him, Li Xuan naturally can't ask for it.

"Uncle Lin, I don't have the energy to pay attention to the affairs of Feihong Real Estate, it is all handled by Ahao. I also feel very embarrassed. If you are optimistic about the future development of Feihong Real Estate, I am willing to give up another 20% of the equity to Ahao. !" As the so-called flower sedan chair is carried by everyone, Li Xuan said in return.

The recent development of Feihong Real Estate is very good, and the second phase of housing has been sold out in Hong Kong. Li Xuan holds 60% of Feihong Real Estate's shares in his hand, but this investment was just his roommate at the time. The controlling stake is not important to him, but it is better to use it now as a favor.

And Li Xuan also made it clear that it was transferred to Lin Yuhao's name, not to the Lin Group. This was to gain benefits for his brother. Lin Guitai looked at the surprise flashing in his son's eyes, and was naturally very happy with Li Xuan's proposal, and nodded cheerfully. As for the price of 20% of the equity, I will have my own person to negotiate, but compared to Li Xuan's initial investment, it is naturally a profit.
